Look! Listen! Feel! Kanazawa Art Journey
Kanazawa is known as a "City of Art." With traditional crafts such as gold leaf and mizuhiki cord that began during the promotion of handicrafts during the Edo period, and the 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art, Kanazawa, the city is filled with places to enjoy art!
“About the Space”
The OMO Cafe & Bar is decorated with ornaments and paper lanterns made from mizuhiki. The light from the lanterns cast mizuhiki-patterned shadows throughout the space to create a magical atmosphere.
"About the Ornaments”
The mizuhiki ornaments are handmade by craftsmen of the original "Kaga Mizuhiki, Tsuda Mizuhiki Orikata." The design of the space expresses the "mindset of caring for others" which is the foundation of mizuhiki.
